Kobudo!

Hey everyone!

Tonight, I had my first weapon's class! It was soo much fun!

We learned how to use the escrima (thats the thingy in the pic). I had never heard of one before a couple of days ago.

My arms are so sore now from holding it and having to swing it so many times. I can't wait to go back!

Our new dojo just opened near our house! It is so cool! We had been barrowing a small building belonging to a church but now, we finally have a place of our own!

Last Tuesday, 58 of us went to help stretch out the mat. It was alot of work but it was an unforgettable moment.

First Day of School

Well, today was the day.

School has began and with a great force...... lol.

I had a full scedual this morning. First I had Chemistry, Spanish, and Lit. I didn't get to come home until 5 today and that was only for a short while. At 6, I had to be at our new dojo to help fix the mat. Finally, I got home at 7:40, ate dinner, cleaned up, and had to finish my Algebra assignment. Boy, am I tired.

I am so thankful God has helped me do all this. He has allowed me to be homeschooled, hang out with my friends, learn things I have always wanted to learn.

Though this school year will be crazy and at times I just want to give up, I trust that God will always be with me. Leading me.
